God Is My Strength

God is my strength in times when I'm weak.
He is my voice when I cannot speak.
For words sometimes fail, but He is right there
To give me good wisdom and save me from "snare".

His peace is a bulwark when I tend to fear.
There I find rest and my qualms disappear.
He is well able to carry me through
When I simply don't know just what I should do.

His Spirit guides me. In Him I can stand
And find my direction when life makes demand.
In Him I'm fulfilled. He answers my plea
To rise up in strength to the best I can be.

"The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me..."
Psalm 138:8 KJV
